    I guess Chrono Trigger, fighting Lavos. Was my first boss battle and for my young impressionable mind, it was awesome.

    I have never played any of those games fully, but that part in Force unleashed where you had to pull down a star destroyer was pretty cool.

    On the other hand with Unreal 2 which could have been a better game, I barely remember the boss fight yet it has one of the best endings around. Morrowind had a good boss fight which tied into the game well and wrapped it up nicely.

    Games which has some mandatory boss fight just to end the game are rather disappointing even if the fight is great.
    You're totally right. Crysis 2 bummed me out even more, it didn't even HAVE a boss fight haha. I was so excited to fight a giant Ceph, except it culminated into nothing really. Crysis 2 was a good game, just had an anti-climactic ending of note.

    And the one time you fight The Unknown, there were some robots dancing, and when you attacked them, the boom box turned out to be a robot as well. Then the unknown drops out of the ceiling in pieces. Cool scene.

    This guy did that battle really well, although it's a rematch so he knew what was coming and how to kill the thing

    Man now I want to go play this again.
    It was one of the most fun and original boss fights I'd had in a while.
